ARISAEMA Top Size “Jack-in-the-Pulpit” or “Cobra Lily” These fascinating and somewhat bizarre woodland wonders display dramatic hooded pitchers and unique tongues in late spring and early summer. In fall, spikes of fleshy red fruits appear. All have glossy lobed leaves that are sometimes striped and veined. Ideally suited for areas with dappled shade and moist, humus soils. Non-hardy species can be grown in pots and are best overwintered in a cool, frost-free location.

immediately following.

ARISARUM PROBOSCIDEUM

“Mouse Plant” This eclectic ground cover is sure to be a hit in any wood- land garden. The flowers appear in early spring, each displaying a ma- roon spathe about 1 inch long and a white bulbous base
veined with maroon. The name “Mouse Plant” is due to the slender appendix or “tail” up to 6 inches long. The plants look like mice diving into the ground. Dark green, 6 inch, arum-like leaves go dormant in early summer. Plant the slender rhizome in well-drained soil with good organic content. The mat-forming plants colonize nicely.
